From time to time all my IMAP ressources go from ONLINE to OFFLINE. After that nothing more happens, i need to start the Akonadi Console and switch every single IMAP ressource to ONLINE again. Is there no automatic way for that? Every other mail client does this without that step :-( Thanks Reproducible: Always
I find that this happens when I move my laptop between dock and "a bunch of loose cables", where it loses network connectivity intermittently. http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi_4.4/Troubleshooting#IMAP_Resource_always_claims_to_be_offline says I need NetworkManager. If this is really true then KMail is permanently dead for me. I actually have NetworkManager running, but it is not managing anything since my IP is configured statically in /etc/network/interfaces. 'qdbus --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.state' returns '70'. I do not even know how to switch the IMAP resources back to online (where is the info on doing that?). The Akonadi settings just shows the IMAP resource as offline, where is the blindingly obvious "Set to online" button? Or why does the Akonadi IMAP resource not react when changing offline/online status inside KMail? Very confusing, and above all, I just can not get it to work. Kubuntu-12.04
Git commit 75a744dd473e57285e417456a2295400b95f9ac2 by Andras Mantia. Committed on 25/11/2012 at 16:34. Pushed by amantia into branch 'master'. Honour the online/offline setting requested by a client application in every case. Previously it could happen that the resources were set to offline mode, but due to an event, like resume from suspend, or network reconnect, the resource went online. This had bad side-effects, like downloading mails while KMail was in offline mode. Yes, it is a bug, that was there even in KMail1 times. :) I CC to other bugs about offline mode, although I'm not confident it fixes those problems. Feel free to report success/failure for those cases.

This occasionally happens to me when I start the computer. IMAP akonadi resources fail to go online, and stay offline until I manually restart the akonadi server. The "go online" link in kmail doesn't do anything. This is a new behaviour in 4.10. I'm using OpenSUSE 12.3.
I can confirm this bug. This alway happens with me. I can provide necessary info. Just tell, what I need check. Gentoo Linux @ amd64 KDE 4.11.3
My problem is that the IMAP mails in KMail2 will go offline automatically and I cannot find a way to let it go back to online automatically. KMail does show that "xxx is in offline mode, click here to go online" when I click an IMAP folder and "click here" does work. However, it's just annoying and I cannot trust the number of unread mails show in the system tray at all. Is there any setting that allows KMail or akonadi trying to be back online automatically ? Platform: Opensuse 12.3, KDE 4.10.5

... I meant Bug 320662 .... sorry for the spam.
This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
